Individual Assignment #3
From the 1920s and up, the Nazi Party targeted German youth as a special audience for its messages. The Party was a movement of youth: dynamic, resilient, forward-looking, and hopeful. Millions of German young people were won over to Nazism in the classroom and through extracurricular activities. By 1933, the Hitler Youth had only 50,000 members, but by the end of the year this figure had increased to more than 2 million. By 1936 membership in the Hitler Youth increased to 5.4 million before it became mandatory in 1939. The Hitler Youth combined sports and outdoor activities. Hitler's plan for this to fit into the perfect world was to have younger kids in wars so that the Nazi party would have more power.
HAVING YOUNGER KIDS IN THE WAR WAS ONE REASON. WHY WAS IT IMPORTANT TO 'GET THE CHILDREN' WHEN THEY WERE YOUNG? AND WHY WAS THE CLASSROOM USED AS A MEANS TO REACHING THE YOUNGER STUDENTS?
